This is the floor plan I am proposing for the Major Project based on the architectural influences of Louis Kahn. It clearly shows where the panels are placed and how the interior space works. The concrete panel sizes are 2500W x 6200H x 150D and so I will have to research the most appropriate footing system to cater for the loads. I have designed the interior walls in accordance of Kahn’s principle to integrate the ‘served’ and ‘servant’ spaces. The benefit of using load bearing tilt up construction allows for large spanning areas free of columns. The site is large enough for the panels to be cast in situe and therfore minimises cost and energy required for transporation. The 5m x 5m section I am looking at in detail for the project is highlighted as on of the connecting panel joints running through the ground floor, mezzanine layer and roofing system.
